Book excerpt: The design of the kayak comes from the Eskimos of Southwestern Greenland, with dimension-sawn wood substituted for a frame of carved driftwood and bones, and canvas substituted for animal skins. This book shows the construction of two kayaks using photos and drawing. It shows how to cover the boat with fiberglass rather than canvas if desired.
